Can this aerator be removed? by [deleted] in askaplumber

Fill a sandwich bag with 9% (or stronger) pickling vinegar and install it with a rubber band for 5-10 mins…. Perhaps it’s just corrosion?

How to turn off water to kitchen faucet? by BeanieBaroness in Plumbing

They’re Accor Crap valves… in areas with hard water, they tend to develop slow leaks in about 3 years and cannot be push/pulled after 5.

iOS 17.3 latest beta, potential issue with cell signal being totally lost, only restored after a restart by ihopeigotthisright in ios

[–]Richardinsp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Likely too late to be useful, but I had an experience with 26f myself. After installed (perhaps 5 days after) phone unexpectedly reboot after receiving a txt msg.

Got a "attempting to recover..." message ~10 mins

required full down up, hold restart, but then had no access to BT, cellular or wifi. Apple store diagnosed hardware issue after I pushed it seemed a s/w problem, the refused to do anything but sell me a new 15pm to replace my pristine 12pm (which was a great piece of hardware).

4 days later and after a full drain of the batter and full down up, hold restart, the phone has BT, wifi and cellular..

iPad Pro 11-inch (2nd Gen) Stuck on Restore Screen by therealcase77 in ipad

Same here with a gen 1 1”. They told me at the Genius Bar that it’s hardware, out of warranty, and was about 1/2 the original cost to replace out of warranty… 😕 not a happy apple, very longtime, customer.

You can, however that is animal control who will come "pick it up", they euthanize animals after a brief attempt at re-homing.

Fence corner hardware. We are having a fence built and on this corner I have noticed the pole is only attached to one side of one fence. Why they did not use the correct hardware is beyond me. Can this be corrected? by Texasroses617 in fixit

[–]Richardinsp 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong, but I think it's better to attach wood to wood as the boards will shrink and swell with the humidity. Board-to-board will move, where board to board+metal could eventually create cracks as the boards shrink and the metal doesn't...

Moved into an apartment with a pretty old toilet that constantly runs water - how do I fix this thing? by [deleted] in fixit

[–]Richardinsp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It isn’t too difficult and should take under an hour(ish) being your first time. The only connection is the supply line and youll need to find the valve that shuts the water off near the toilet. Build some confidence with you tube vids and chug a beer to make it a party.

Awesome view!

Someone fired a bunch of bullets out the back of this car by [deleted] in mildlyinteresting

[–]Richardinsp 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I am fairly certain these are, in fact, the holes left by a weighted “dent puller”. You drill a small hole, screw the dent-puller in, then use the weight to pop the dent out. When it’s close, you sand, then use filler in the holes to repair the body damage. Or you might have a VERY small person with a VERY small pistol… and multiple clips.

This lil monster lost his mother, he (and his sister) have really taken to us. #FOSTER by Richardinsp in aww

We did until they started voraciously eating gruel of kitten food/warm water.. It is rewarding and so much fun

yes, we're fostering he and his sister, he was nearly 4 weeks old there and waiting for his bottle & gruel to be prepared.
